Microsoft says it will add cloud technology services to iOS apps and Mac computers

Silicon Valley News Beijing time July 1, the U.S. Science and Technology blog Reading and writing network, Microsoft in the recent BUILD2013 conference, has been trying to emphasize its technology in the cloud and other platforms compatible with the achievements. It seems that Microsoft is no longer the Windows system Company we know, and that cloud services almost penetrate almost all of Microsoft's main businesses.


　　


The following is the main content of the article:


　　


"Now, we're going to show you how to add windowsazure cloud services to iOS apps and Mac computers." ”


　　


Yes, the phrase comes from a Microsoft employee.


　　


Thursday, the software giant spared no effort to show the other side of the keynote speech at Microsoft's Build2013 conference. On the first day of the Microsoft BUILD2013 Conference in Wednesday, all the themes of the conference revolved around the Windows operating system, and Microsoft appealed to a variety of digital designers, developers who wrote Web pages and mobile programs, and those who thought Windows was dispensable. Want them to be able to use Windows products.


　　


after one after another product demo, Microsoft hopes to be able to communicate smoothly with these developers who are rich in cloud technology. Microsoft is constantly introducing: this is the adaptive web-Guide framework for Twitter, which works well on smartphones and tablets; This is an iphone app that works well on the Microsoft Azure cloud Platform; Visual Studio supports Git source code protocol This is the online storage start-up CEO Allen Levi (Aaronlevie) and so on.


　　


at the build convention "you see a brand new Microsoft," says Levy. He joked that he wanted Microsoft founder Bill Gates to Gates from the ceiling and grab an Apple Mac computer on the stage.


　　


All this change for Microsoft, not overnight. But the keynote speech at Microsoft's Build2013 Congress can be said to be a complete display of Microsoft's new approach.


　　


The winner of Microsoft's new attempt is Satia Nadra, head of Microsoft's server and Tools department, Satyanadella. Microsoft's business in the sector continues to be profitable, in fact, beyond the windows sector.


　　


Microsoft's experience in cloud services can be traced back decades to its MSN online service and web-based email service hotmail. Now, almost every good service Microsoft offers is based on cloud services, from Skype to Xbox, to Bing search engines. Microsoft's mobile services are also based on cloud services.


　　


So, what kind of enterprise is Microsoft today? Is it the same Windows and Office products company that we know? Or is Microsoft a cloud technology company?


　　


if Microsoft does not have office and windows, Microsoft's cloud business will be second only to Amazon's Web services. Imagine, if Microsoft only Office and Windows products, no cloud services architecture, then there will be no Office365, no Skype, no Yammer, no windows application push notifications, no SkyDrive cloud storage.


　　


Microsoft's cloud business benefits from its big customers in Windows and office. But even without these customers, Microsoft's cloud business could theoretically survive, but not for Windows and Office departments. This suggests that there has been a major shift in power from the traditional desktop software business to the cloud business for the future. The Nadra department is the center of this shift. With the sector increasingly embraced by software developers outside Microsoft, Microsoft's development is well worth looking forward to.
